Leucogranite Sills

Cool geology video features Dr. Dave Lageson sitting on a field of leucogranite near Everest Base Camp. Dave shares how this rock was formed 24 million years ago underneath Tibet.

Yaks near Everest Base Camp

More yak info straight from Travis at Base Camp: The average yak load is about 150-200lbs. They train them by making them carry loads at a young age. Yaks walk about 1.5-2 miles per hour. A yak weighs about the same as a Montana cow, 1,000 - 1,200lbs. They travel up to 12 miles in a day. Yaks often have names but for progressively larger herds the names become more generic, like black, brown or white yak.
